Male Athlete of the Week-Brennen Sager

RedTail Cross Country student-athlete Brennen Sager has been named Scheels Male Athlete of the Week for his overall performance at the NJCAA Nationals Cross Country Championships in Huntsville, Alabama on November 11th.

Brennen finished the cross country season at Nationals with his lifetime best with a new time of 28:44.6 which placed him 130th overall.

"Brennen has been a fun kid to coach this fall," said assistant coach Hunter Lavallee. "He's originally a mid-distance runner who was more than willing to help out the team and jump in a few races this season. At the National Meet, he came out through the first mile pretty slow per his norm and passed 80+ people as he closed the race. Capped off an excellent fall training season and will be a force to be reckoned with come indoor season!"

Sager is originally from Grundy Center.
